1 Serron: I'll just tuck this organ case under my jacket...
2 Shady Black Market Weapons Dealer: {reappearing from the other room} Here's your money. Remember the deal is 10% a week.
2 Serron: What?! Nothing!
3 Shady Black Market Weapons Dealer: No, 10%, not nothing. This isn't a flea market, bub. {gives them the money}
3 Serron: I didn't see anything!
3 Iki Piki: Uh, we'll just go now. Thanks. {they leave}
4 Shady Black Market Weapons Dealer: People always go weird when they owe you money.

Yes, he did actually give them the money. It's hard to show it with immobile figures.

2018-09-10 Rerun commentary: The loan shark mentioned the 10% per week interest rate back in #1805.

I realise that this strip is probably not a great one to jump in on as a casual reader. If you don't know the story to this point, this strip must be very confusing.
